World Milk Day is celebrated to recognise the importance of milk as a global food and to celebrate the dairy sector. Milk plays a vital role in promoting growth and development, especially in children, as it is rich in essential nutrients such as calcium, vitamins, protein, and minerals. This year’s theme will focus on celebrating the vital role dairy plays in delivering quality nutrition to nourish the world. Dairy is an accessible, affordable, and nutrient-dense food, and an essential part of balanced diets across the world.
On World Milk Day, the focus is also on encouraging manufacturing methods that reduce water consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, as well as promoting animal welfare and safe working conditions.The focus is also placed on the larger economic impact of the dairy industry on the global economy. World Milk Day puts a lot of attention on milk and does a great job in publicising activities connected with the milk industry.
